THE LF-ZL FUTURE VISION SUV

SEAMLESSLY INTEGRATED MOBILITY

Offering a glimpse into a future where mobility, people and society can seamlessly integrate, the LF-ZL concept car tailors the driving experience to each driver. Taking hints from habits to present personalised recommendations, the flagship model aims to empower people to live how they wish. All the while, contributing positively to their personal surroundings, the wider environment and society.

NEXT-GENERATION HOSPITALITY

Offering a prestigious ownership experience beyond the car, the LF-ZL is driven by innovation in next-generation BEV architecture and software advancements from the new Arene OS platform. With a spacious and relaxing cabin, it takes full advantage in the form of BEV-specific packaging and optimised interior space. And fully embodies the Japanese concept of Omotenashi that focuses around hospitality, all through technological advancements.

SEAMLESS LIFESTYLE INTEGRATION

Creating a more personalised mobility experience, Lexus will harness the full capabilities of Arene OS - an interactive reality experience platform. Collecting data from maps and vehicle cameras, it learns and anticipates driver needs. Combined with AI chat functionality and in-car voice recognition, it links information gathered with digital information from its surroundings to manage the charging process and power supply for example. This way, the LF-ZL seamlessly fits into a customer’s life.

FOCUS-ENHANCING COCKPIT

Across the LF-ZL cockpit, functions previously spread over a wide area have been consolidated on digital pads within arm’s reach. On the left, find operational functions like shifts, safety and driver assistance (ADAS) systems and drive mode selection. Whilst on the right sits audio, climate control phone and AI functions. Improving driver focus even further with an “eyes on the road” principle, a distant view meter projects information onto the windscreen and digital side mirrors minimise glances.

ADVANCED CUSTOMISATION

Featuring a next-generation voice recognition system that uses AI, customers can experience an attentive, swift service reminiscent of a real-life interaction. Applying optimal personalised settings for each customer with every drive, including route recommendations, this is the result of self-learning. Accumulating driving data, it goes beyond simply understanding personal characteristics to identify subliminal preferences, providing even more of a welcoming experience.

BEAUTY, ELECTRIFIED.

The LF-ZL shares an array of design and electrification features with its sister car, the LF-ZC. Its visual identity creates a sense of emotional impact, evolving function and design through electrification with a spindle body design and flared rear wheel arches. Mirroring Lexus’ commitment to sustainability, efficient yet beautiful bamboo is the signature material of both vehicles with the Bamboo CMF Concept1. And thanks to no engine compartment and a low centre of gravity, range is doubled via enhanced aerodynamics and weight reduction.
